Halo 3 And Halo Reach Tutorials Section

[deadcanadian 271]

At the moment being that we had the halo reach beta and people are actively modding it, and due to how similar the two games are i have combined the two forums.

This will make very little differance as about 95% of the tutorials will work for both games. The only differance is that you will need to be smart and recognize that you have to use the right program for the game. As well as the plugins for the game you are modding such as the reach beta might not be the same or complete so you might have to look for where it should be or even name the plugin so you can see what to do for the tutorial. along with given values there is high chance that they will not match so use the proper ones when modding.

Ive also renamed the Halo Reach catagory to Halo Reach Beta due to the fact that the final game could be using a completely differance engine and we might not be able to use the current beta tutorials to mod it. Small chance but will do know that we will almost garanteed need a new program and plugins for the final version.

This is a good idea but I believe further reorganization is nessasary. I will figure it out tonight as I will be home. I may completely reorder the forums. Confining on the section for the forums is called Halo 3 Systems. The fact of having tutorials in a different game scares me. The Left 4 dead forum needs to go as well.

I'm thinking that Bungie will be smarter then this when they finish reach and sell it in stores. They might have done some research and found out all these different modding programs and reconfigured the system to stop these modding programs work with halo reach .I hope not but it is a 50,50% chance this may occur. There will be new modding programs i reckon for halo reach and bungie will not no as they didn't no with halo 3.

They'd have to rework a ton of settings to get that all changed around plus engine reworking. I don't think they would have the time.

well we never know until halo reach comes out I'm hoping they didn't fix the system so we can mod extremely awesomeness modding!! well people have already seen things in the halo reach beta, new cars and wepon / mods.

no matter what were going to need a new program and the plugins will be differant. theres a differant program for halo 3 beta(i think still unreleased), alteration for halo 3 and odst cause there on the same engine, just differant plugins, and ascension for reach

but initially all the program are the same. all were going to have to do is get new plugins and the map id so we can get the current programs to load the maps.

but a new engine initially does mean that we will need to load the map slightly differantly. especially if there is alot more stuff added.
